This book covers switching from the basics to advanced features, such as multilayer switching, as
they pertain to Cisco's Catalyst products. Because of the rapidly changing Catalyst product line, I
was unable to include all the latest products. However, I am sure that this is one of the most
up-to-date reference materials available.

The Catalyst 2900 Series XL and Catalyst 3500 Series XL Software
Configuration Guide is for the network manager responsible for configuring the
Catalyst 2900 series XL and Catalyst 3500 series XL switches, hereafter referred
to as the switches. Before using this guide, you should be familiar with the
concepts and terminology of Ethernet and local area networking. This guide provides information about configuring and troubleshooting a switch
or switch clusters.

Learn to use the new Flash Catalyst to create rich Internet applications
Adobe Flash Catalyst enables you to take designs from Photoshop and Illustrator and convert them into rich Flash-based applications—without writing or even understanding one line of code. It may sound too good to be true, but this helpful reference shows you how to leverage the Flash skills you already have in order to convert your ideas into functioning applications. You’ll explore everything from the basics of the Flex framework to using Flash Builder to complete conversion of an application....

Introduction:
The term NEMCA refers to nonfaradaic electrochemical modiﬁcation of catalytic activity. The NEMCA effect is also known as electrochemical promotion or electrochemical promotion of catalysis (EPOC) or electropromotion. It is the effect observed on the rates and selectivities of catalytic reactions taking place on electronically conductive catalysts deposited on ionic (or mixed ionic–electronic) supports upon application of electric current or potential (typically 72 V) between the catalyst and a second (counter or auxiliary) electrode also deposited on the same support. ...

Ideal for web designers, this book introduces Flash Catalyst basics with detailed step-by-step instructions and screenshots that illustrate every part of the process. You’ll learn hands-on how to turn your static design or artwork into working user interfaces that can be implemented in Flash Builder or Adobe AIR.
Import files from Photoshop, Illustrator, or Fireworks
Convert your artwork into interactive components and apply specific actions
Create animated transitions between the web pages in your project
Test interactive components and transitions while you work...

Two FCC catalysts with a 60m average size, prepared with different crystallite sizes (0.4 and 0.9m), are studied in terms of total acidity, energy of ammonia desorption, specific surface area, relative amount of Brönsted and Lewis acid sites, crystallite and particle size, and micropore size distribution.

In petroleum industry, it is desirable to produce lighter hydrocarbons such as gasoline, kerosene and gas–oil from unused heavy oils. Thus we have developed zirconia-supporting iron oxide catalysts View the MathML source to decompose petroleum residual oil (atmospheric distilled residual oil) with steam.

The alternative fuels that are derived from non-fossil source are very promising fuels for the future. Catalytic cracking of vegetable oil sludge is an advanced method for obtaining of bio- fuels. The huge waste in the vegetable oil manufacture could be converted to bio-fuel. Cracking of vegetable oil sludge by HY catalyst using MAT5000 instrument is a precious method for studying this catalytic cracking reaction. By catalytic cracking, the LPG gas, gasoline product, LCO and HCO products are also formed of vegetable oil sludge.

Preparation, characterization and application of heterogeneous solid base catalyst for biodiesel production from soybean oil has many contents: Preparation of catalyst, haracterization of the catalys, ransesterification of soybean oil and chemicalanalyses, creening of catalyst, atalyst characterizations, fluence of the transesterification reactionconditions,...

Polymers present a class of materials that play a role of importance growing in catalysis. Polymeric catalysts based on polypropylene-polyacrylic acid (PP-APA) were prepared by the two methods: co-polymerization in the presence of transition metal ions (Cu(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Mn(II)…) and soaking method. Their catalytic activity was determined by oxidation reactions of ions S2- and hydroquinone by molecular oxygen in normal condition.

enzymes are powerful biological catalysts that are essential for the proper maintenance and propagation of any organism. these properties make them excellent candidates as therapeutic targets to combat diseases of either genetic or pathogenic origin. in this regard, one goal of molecular medicine is to develop and implement effective agents that can modulate the activity of various enzymes involved in essential biological pathways. the process of developing and characterizing these small molecules, i.e., rational drug design, often requires a priori knowledge of the enzyme in question....

Abstract Red mud is a residue in the production of alumina by the Bayer process. It contains oxides of iron and titanium, and has been shown to be active in sulfided form as hydrogenation catalyst. The evolution of sulfided red mud activity and selectivity with reaction time was studied for the hydrogenation of a light fraction of an anthracene oil.

In order to secure the energy supply to an increasing population and at the same time limit the damage to Earth, i.e. avoiding a fatal climate change as a result of anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (primarily CO2), immediate action is necessary. This includes reducing the energy consumption, increasing the energy conversion efficiency, and using renewable energies. The transport sector is the one most dependent on fossil energy and it stands for a significant part of the energy consumption in the world.

Over the past decade the topic of energy and environment has been acknowledged
among many people as a critical issue to be solved in 21st century since
the Kyoto Protocol came into effect in 1997. Its political recognition was put
forward especially at Heiligendamm in 2007, when the effect of carbon dioxide
emission and its hazard in global climate were discussed and shared universally
as common knowledge.
